an hour left to the vampires curse

[slayers_desire]

Things had continued to be quiet for the most part, as Rain continued to watch over the changed April, in the fact that she had sacrificed time with her soul for him. The vampire April had been not as violent as one might have predicted. But there was a lot she had learned in the 72 hours of having control of the form she usually shared with human nature.

It was almost time for the spell to be complete. One hour was left.

And it was that hour that might become the most difficult for Rain to deal with. For suddenly, with no reason, April collapsed to the ground, holding her head and crying out in pain.

He stares deep into Limbo. "Um.. me. Uh.. Rain. Rain Spencer." he replies cautiously.

"And why have you summoned my, Rain. Rain Spencer." Limbo is very literal.

"My girlfriend is a vampire and she kinda gave up part of herself to help me get some time with my deceased parents. Now she's in a lot of pain and I want to help alleviate it."

((Sorry we seem to keep missing each other. You post just as I go to bed. LOL))

"What will you be willing to do to alleviate the pain?"

((Bad habit I guess. Will work better tomorrow))

[chimera-slayer.livejournal.com]

"About anything I have to." he says bravely.

((Not your fault. I have a fucked up sleep schedule because I'm up so damned early.))

"Would you sacrifice part of your soul to save her?"

((I know. And different hours))

"Part of my soul?" he blinks. "She's not dying. I just want to alleviate her pain. If I gave up part of my soul... no, I can't do it. I have to stay whole, and she'd kill me if I did."

"Then you have nothing to offer me for ease of the return of her soul." The voice replied simply.

He sighs. "I guess not. There's no task I can perform as payment?"

"Limbo is the land of lost souls. If you do not want to sacrifice a part of your soul... you could offer aid to one of our lost souls."

[chimera-slayer.livejournal.com]

"That's something I can probably do." Rain says.

"Select a soul to assist." The voice replied. Five faint outlines appeared at the entrance of Limbo. There were three males and two females. Most were adults, but there were two children (one male and the other female).

Rain can also hear the pain sobbing from April die down.

Rain had thought April was still out cold, she must have regained consciousness. He had a soft spot for children. He chose the little girl.

One can sob while still unconscious. It is a good sign that the sobbing has stopped.

The little girl looks up at Rain. "I would like my body to be found... so my parents can put me to rest."

[chimera-slayer.livejournal.com]

Rain wondered how he was going to find a body in an hour. He knelt down. "Do you know where you died? What happened to you?"

[slayers-desire.livejournal.com]

Rain is not going to have to worry about a time limit. Limbo has eased April's pain, trusting that the Slayer will keep his word.

"A bad man took me..." The little girl shimmered, almost disappearing from the memory.
